Did a DIY video: Jewelry box

I made this jewelry box out of old stuff I found in my wardrobe. I think it's really clever and pretty, which is surprising since my artist skills hasn't improved since primary school.

Since you are all girls and may have pretty things, I thought you would like to see it. I made it yesterday and put it together 3 TIMES, because moviemaker didn't like me.

Re: Did a DIY video: Jewelry box

@Picalilll I LOVE it! I think it's really cool, and really fun and cute! Not at ALL tacky!
When I have the time, I will definitely try this myself. Please make more D.I.Y. Videos and be sure to post them here, on the Board! Let us know whenever you make one! I love it! good


The Mauraders were alive that night, all four of them, you know, but it wasn't the same; only three were true and one was gone, and the one that was gone shouldn't have been. But they were together, again, and in that moment, they knew, they would never say goodbye.

Thank you x

Is there anything in particular you would like a D.I.Y video on? I have a box of junk so if not I'll go through that and do something with it

Re: Did a DIY video: Jewelry box

I've seen it last night but it was really late and I didn't comment right away, sorry~

But! This was really good! The whole underwater concept was really nice and sweet (ahemandmybestfriendisnotapiratenuhuhnope).

DIY are always great as long as they use, mainly, recycled objects from home. I follow Anneorshine (I think she's great too) and I really liked this thing she did with old candle containers to store her makeup things. I was wondering if you'd like to do something of that sort (use old can-like things to store something).

Hey, keep on the good work!

I can certainly have a look at what is in the box. I'm currently fixing up my mums website.... theres an error on the site so I can't do anything until they get back to me. So I shall have a look around now

Re: Did a DIY video: Jewelry box

@Saffi, ohhh yeah! She's really good and her story was touching too.

@Pica, the second video isn't working yet but the candle idea was really interesting! I loved the gems idea to reflect the light, it was just perfect!

Re: Did a DIY video: Jewelry box

Ow that was so cute~
Oh, I forgot to mention: on the candle video, some of the final texts are too fast and it's hard to read.

Also, this is just an extra for those who can't buy some paintings and more...

A "fake" and cheap acrylic painting very easy to get is to mix wodden glue/ white glue with guaches. It is 80% the same as acrylic.
When using acrylic, remember to have some turpentine with you. That's pretty much the "water" to dissolve acrylic and to "wash" your paint brushes.

Last one, not very recommended: tempura (similar to guache) was firstly made from egg and colored pigments so you can always try that too.

And remember to have paintbrushes with different sizes and textures and foldings according to the paint you'll use.

Oqei I'm out, sorry Pica.

Well a few years ago I got a acrylic paint set where it was i tubes. It had a silver bit over it which you had to pop with the lid. I forgot to do that. I squeezed it hard but nothing was happening. I kept squeezing and the back popped open and the force caused the paint to splat onto the ceiling. Mum got it off though, so it's fine. Quite comical.

Re: Did a DIY video: Jewelry box

I was once painting with guaches and I was using that technique in which you hit the paint brush or flick the brush to create drop effects. My desk lamp was slightly translucid in white, a square prisma thingy. When I looked, it was all dotted with red, blue, yellow, green, etc. And also below my window, the desk and the curtains.
I was actually safe for about... 6 months? I usually had my desk full with stuff so my mom didnt notice. Until I decided to clean it and she decided to take that lamp to its original place: her bedstand. And then she looks at the lamp and then at me like "Mind explaining this?". I could only answer "I'm an artist. And hey, at least I cleaned the wall." and she got between mad and surprised I had even splashed paint on the wall ahahah

Re: Did a DIY video: Jewelry box

Haha, my mum just sighed and cleaned it up. My parents never get angry at me or my sister. Once me and my sister had a fight when we were 9-10ish... she was kicking my door...she put a hole through it. Dad came upstairs to see her crying and I don't like seeing her upset. He wasn't angry he found it funny...so we all lined up infront of mum who was in the living room...we blamed it on her. We blamed her for buying cheap doors and Dad was with us.... and that hole in my door is still there to this day.

Re: Did a DIY video: Jewelry box

Ah my mom, I was surprised she took so long to find that out! Some time ago, me and my sister had a HUGE fight and it ended with her hitting me and me closing her on our siblings' room. And I closed the door, hard! And I started walking and then I looked down because I had part of the door handler on my hand. You know those that you put your hand and have to push down? I broke that. And I went and opened the said door and she was starting at me; right when she opened her mouth to yell at me, I showed her the broken handler and we just laughed for like 10 minutes and then we told mom I tripped on the door and held onto that part and broke it. She still doesnt suspect it happened because of a fight ahah
I still have the handler somewhere...
